APPLICATION
The Det-Tronics W867 Ultraviolet/Infrared (UV/IR)
Test Lamp is a portable, battery operated source of
ultraviolet and infrared radiation that can be used for
periodic inspection of UV, single frequency IR and
UV/IR flame detection systems. It produces UV and
IR radiation to verify response of the flame detection
system without the need for an open flame, and is
suitable for use in hazardous (classified) areas. (Note:
Det-Tronics Dual Frequency IR detectors require the
model W868 Dual Frequency IR Test Lamp for testing.)

OPERATION
To operate the W867 Test Lamp, push the “ON”
button (see Figure 2) and aim the test lamp at the
TOP VIEW detector. The UV and IR emitting lamp inside the
W867 will flash on and off at a rate of approximately
10.38 (26.4) 2 times per second. This flashing operation satisfies
the “flicker” circuit in the IR detector. Response of
the detection system will depend upon the distance
between the W867 and the detector, and upon the
sensitivity programmed into the detection system. It
may be necessary to decrease the distance between
7.38 4.25
the detector and the test lamp in order to obtain a
(18.7) (10.8) response.
